comments on these FLIK wheels...
This was posted on a-cl.com so sorry if you're reading this twice...
I found these on www.edgeracing.com
FLIK LEX wheels
I got a price quote with the 225/40/18 Kuhmo 712s.
All together w/ shipping and mount/balance was $1360 to my door.
Not a bad deal right? My only concern is that they are a new company...and these are their first wheels.
Also they have a 42mm offset, which is somewhat low.
Here are my other tire choices for 225/40/18 size.
Any suggestions/recommendations?

Yeah, saw those from that site a week ago, but had second thoughts cause I never heard of the brand. Good looking rims though. Check out this place. They have some real good deals.

somewheel companies offsets even thou they are lower then the stock wheels will still fit under the wheel well.....i know my enkies with a 40mm offset fits on acura's with no problems...but i would go somewhere where they have that wheel and have em test it b4 i buy.

Those look more like AVS knock-offs. Mine are THE SSR knock-off.
In 18's, those would look bigger, like a 19, because the spoke goes all the way to the lip. What width are they? I would recommend going with a 235/40 tire, but with a +40mm wheel, that would RUB.
Check out mine; they only cost $1,600 with 235/40/18 Kumhos.

I believe the FLIX where 18X8
I also have TEIN Coilovers so adjusting height to eliminate rub is not a problem
thanks to everyone that has responded

That means YOU SHOULD WATCH OUT FOR POTHOLES
